If it wasn't so bad that you were slewing all over the road, probably not. It's tough to know about that stuff because cars are heavy and move fast so there is a lot of force that your suspension has to deal with.

If the tire shop fucked you over, though, you should at least try to make them redo your alignment just in case.

I didn't much care for it. One major thing I thought was annoying was that they saw Deadpool's success and went, "Oh! Gore and profanity is popular in superhero movies!" Then they just needlessly added as much gore and profanity as they could stick into the movie as they possibly could.

The gore was supposed to be offputting, man. Wolverine has been around for like half a century and you rarely saw how grisly his claws and style of fighting (get hit and regenerate) really would be. Logan was all about tearing away some of the comic book wholesome veneer and adding real life issues to the characters.

I love me some "girly" drinks, I always get them. Watermelon Margaritas are the best. Just no mango, mangoes taste like I what assume are oranges that somebody regurgitated.

I actually like the slight stigma of guys drinking them because you can use that as a icebreaker when you're with chicks. "Oh, look at me, my drink has the most alcohol and I look like I'm too cool to care about what people think of me." Only, you know, unironically.

alright so would you agree that there is a problem with spending thousands of hours in those types of games? if I can get one person to agree with that, I will feel that I've succeeded with this thread.

Well, yeah, anything you get addicted to and neglect other aspects of your life as a result is bad. But that's on you, man, not video games. And I don't say that maliciously, life isn't easy.

If you're having fun playing those games, you haven't wasted your time


Well... that can't be the only criteria. There are a lot of things you can do all day which are enjoyable but not necessarily a good use of time. That said, even culture doesn't necessarily hae inherent value compared to other activities.


You're gaining culture vs gaining nothing. Culture is critical in society because it's the only thing that separates us humans from an alien society where they are all just mindless drones focused only on research and production.


Technically you're gaining culture while gaming as well, since culture is an incredibly diverse subject. And, broadly speaking, culture is of less inherent value than practical activities. Doubly so in terms of value to society, since science -- for instance -- has a greater potential for improving the overall existence of a people.



ok so say you're right that in many games you gain culture. What about people who spend thousands of hours in League, DotA, CS:GO, and similar games? After they learn all of the characters, all of the moves, what else is there to gain?

Why'd you keep playing it, then? You do know that not everybody who likes playing games does so like that, right?

Fun fact: I dated a chinese girl for a while who believed that RTK was a 100% factual recounting of what happened. There really were 8 foot tall dudes who could kill 100 men and guys who could use magic back then, according to her. In fairness, that's at least cooler than most of the shit in the bible.

Real talk I have had stuff like that happen from sleeping in an odd position. Pain is a weird thing, and anything but exact.

Not really sure eating a month's worth of sodium from Panda Express was the best fast breaker, though, especially when several of your symptoms sound like dehydration.

Never hurts to make one follow-up call or visit, almost every employer has a stack of resumes to go through so doing something to make you stick out can be useful. If a simple phone call annoys a manager, then that's a place and a boss you didn't want to work for anyway.

Fast food.

Give up and apply other places. There are only 3 outcomes when an application is put into a fast food restaurant. 1. They don't need people when you can work so they ignore you. 2. They need people so they'll call you right away. 3. They're so buttfucked for time and disorganized because they're crazy short people that they haven't managed to get back to you. You don't want to work there if it's like that, there are tons of places in the same pay range that will suck much, much less.
